Prepare Yourself!!

Ok everyone, I know I'm a little behind. Or maybe a lot!! I have had pics on my camera since Christmas and finally decided it was time to put them on the computer. So prepare yourself, there are a LOT of pics to look at. They are all out of order and date, but I didn't realize it until I was halfway thru, and I was not starting over! It's a bit difficult to get much done with a 2 yr old wanting to be in the middle of everything! Can you believe she's 2?!!! It goes by so fast, it seems like yesterday we were bringing her home from the hospital. Well, her bday pics aren't even on here, I didn't want to overwhelm everyone. I will put them up in a few days... or knowing me, a few weeks!! Enjoy! And yes, I know that the last pics are smaller than the others. It's also hard to concentrate with a 2 yr old!!




I love her curls!!!

I know it's hard to see but she put all of her plastic food in the little compartment on the back of the car, said she was going "choppin"! (shopping)

We don't know why, but she almost always puts her sunglasses on upside down- we try to fix them, but she says no, " I do it"!

And, yes, here she is eating the cheetos off the floor! ( and for all those who are wondering, yes, the floor was clean!!!)

These pics are backwards, but she LOVES cheetos!! I told Avery she could have some, so she grabbed the bag, took the clip off, and consequently spilled the entire bag on the kitchen floor.

Avery says "cheese" and smiles really big anytime the camera comes out!

Too bad this is sideways, I think this is the cutest pic! Mimi got her this dress for Christmas, I love it!!!!

How sweet! I am so blessed!!!

Avery loves putting our shoes on and walking around the house, although she rarely makes it very far, very fast.

Avery loves climbing on the couch and propping up on the ottoman, hilarious!

Most of the time when Avery is quiet, she's up to no good! There has been a couple of times where we have found her reading!!!!

It is so much easier to feed her finger food, but we have been trying to teach her to us a spoon and fork. She has gotten so much better at it, this is Avery eating mashed potatoes after church one sunday. Still a little messy though, guess there's no way around it!

Avery absolutely loves chicken mcgnuggets and barbecue sauce from McDonald's. She calls it "chicken and sauce."

Avery loves wearing her boots! And she has a pretty big foot, as you can see. (Joe wears a 15!)

Hanging out with Daddy! She has him wrapped around her finger!

Coloring is one of her favorite activities! You can't let her out of your sight though. I came home from work one day when Daddy was watching her, and there was crayon on the walls, her grocery cart, and her pretty polka dot chair- red crayon to make it worse!!! I think I have washed that chair 3 times in the last several months, not very fun to take apart and put back together!

Note the hair!!

Avery loves her ball pit that she got from Big Momma for Christmas! She will sit in it and zone out on Mickey Mouse! We can't seem to take enough pics of her hair static when she's in it. Too funny! It's kinda hard to see in this picture.

I'm not sure what she's doing in this pic, hope you find it as funny as we do!

Daddy got her dressed one Sunday while I was working, hair and everything. I thought he did a great job!

Helping Daddy put up the Christmas lights! Any excuse to be outside.

Playing with Popa in the leaves!! Avery had a big time!!

Mimi and BB made Avery and I matching towel wraps for Christmas, very cute! These are the best pics I have gotten so far.

Christmas at Popa and Mimi's. Avery got several pairs of clothes, everytime she would open a box, she would hold every piece of clothing up under her chin like this!

Avery loves her puppy dog, she tried to take her cousins at a Christmas several weeks before, and that didn't go over well when Grace wouldn't let Avery have it. So, Popa and Mimi decided that she needed one of her own.

Avery carries around her Hello Kitty backpack with her toys and little stuffed animals (her babies) in it!

She was told several times not to push the buttons... see how well she listens?!

Avery loved helping everyone open their presents, but wasn't as interested in her own!

I know it's not a very good pic, but the tutu and boot houseshoes was adorable! She had on a hat and boa at one time, but we couldn't get her to keep it on!

Walking around in Daddy's shoes!

I got distracted by Avery playing with packing tape and rubber bands when I was trying to work on this post. I accidentally hit the publish button before I was finished, so I apologize ahead of time if all of these pics are on there twice!!
